My engine bay is poorly painted blue by the previous owner, but it will be painted different color as the body. Paint theme will be inspired by Akinobu Satsukawa.

Paint it flesh color
Whole car, flesh color. All of it

As long as that car NEVER touches a public road, it is perfectly fine by me. Don't get me wrong, the craftsmanship looks very good. And that really is a shame to have put so much quality work on a turd, because underneath this look, that S14 is a piece of shite.
That "thing" has no suspension travel, and its geometry setup is so fucked up it could not even drive straight at 3mph. Why would you build something that drives like that ? The only reason i can think of is "you will never drive it".

I guess it is an ok object, as long as it does not move ... but thats not the purpose of a car...

It's Japan, they drive with -20degrees of camber on roads with no problem.

But yup, I bet that car is horrible to drive. After all, I think it is safe as full slicks on street car.

I really hope we're approaching the end of the hella flush camber shit

We certinely are. The people that made it popular are the ones helping kill it.
Too bad its going to affect us all. Pretty soon cops will be picking on all cars with camber.

dub40sx · 12-24-2015, 05:42 PM

If this ever comes this way im starting a movement to crack down on douche bag diesel owners that have 6" thick aluminum spacers between their duals out back. Cause 9k lbs of truck speeding through town spewing black smoke riding on aluminum spacers is some how safer than camber.

Move to a state that don't give a fuck is the answer. #midwestlife

I find the number of painted body panels and the degree of wheel camber negatively correlates with age.

Yea, he's a idiot. Looks like the kind of cop that comes home at the end of the day and brags to his wife how he made America safer by giving out tickets for stupid shit

Matej is being funny.

The cop has to measure it in court. "legal limit is X, you are at XY".

Just like speeding, why need a radar gun when it's obvious you are going fast then 35?

As for why these cops care? I doubt they do on a daily basis. But when big shows roll in like H20, it's a money making business.
